Flights follow deaths of dozens of Palestinians during chaotic delivery of humanitarian goods
The US has begun to airdrop food into Gaza, the day after Joe Biden rebuked Israel, saying it had “no excuses” for failing to allow more aid into the besieged enclave. The US military said on Saturday that it had dropped “over 38,000 meals along the coastline of Gaza”. In a statement posted on social media site X, US Central Command said the operation, carried out in conjunction with Jordan’s air force, was “part of a sustained effort to get more aid into Gaza”.
“Hopefully we will know shortly,” Biden said. US National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said that the airdrops were “part of a larger, longer sustained effort to increase the flow of humanitarian assistance . . . a supplement to, not a replacement for, moving things in by ground”. Jordan, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt have also airdropped assistance into Gaza. The UN has warned that a quarter of Gaza’s population of more than 2mn is on the brink of famine.
